    inside of cylinders with borascope

    this is not my video, just came across while searching on youtube, but found it interesting.
    show what bad and good pistons look like, melted piston, bad ring, and the difference between injected engine and direct injection engine

    you can buy a usb borascope for about £10-£15 to view on a laptop. i have one but not used it yet on my current engine i will do a video when i next change the plugs.

    if you think you have a piston problem it might be a wise investment before paying someone else to stip your engine just to find out you have already melted a pastion and scratched the bore of the cylinder so you know you will have to have a cylinder rebore. you would know the cost of fixing the engine will be high so it would be cheaper to buy a second hand engine and you can check it out before you buy it, it only a spark plug out job and rotate the engine.


    food for thought
